Thankful Thursday

Because we all have something to be thankful for...

I'm thankful for new friends that I have met in the blogging community. I "met" Jamie through the SITS 31 Days to a Better Blog Challenge and we became blog buddies. Jamie is currently training to run her first marathon {not half, but a FULL marathon} that takes place next month. I'm taking away a lot of great advice through Jamie's blog, so if you are a runner, or want to be a runner, go check her out!

Anyway, Jamie tagged me in a post a couple of weeks ago and I am just now sitting down to respond. {I'm such a bad blog buddy. Sorry Jamie!} Here are the rules:

RULES

1. Post these rules.

2. You must post 11 random things about yourself.

3. Answer the questions set for you in their post.

4. Create 11 new questions for the people you tag to answer.

5. Go to their blog and tell them you’ve tagged them.
